The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers specialising in conveyancing in Worcestershire. There are those who acquire a house in Worcestershire, completely expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Solicitors are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that can be initiated by the purchaser or by their conveyancers which can figure out the risks in Worcestershire. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms given to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a usual inquiry of the seller to discover if the property has historically flooded. If flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer could issue a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect reply. The purchaser’s conveyancers will also commission an environmental report. This should disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be conducted.
